No crime, poverty or unemployment in Captive State

Rise of the Planet of the Apes director Ruper Wyatt is returning to big screens with utopian/dystopian sci-fi thriller Captive State.

Information beyond that contained in this interesting little teaser trailer is thin, but the basic synopsis involves the exploration of the lives of both collaborators and dissidents nearly a decade after Earth’s occupation by an extra-terrestrial force. They’ve eradicated crime, poverty and unemployment – hey, how bad can our new alien overlords be then?

Starring the likes of Vera Farmiga, John Goodman, Madeline Brewer, Alan Ruck and Machine Gun Kelly, Captive State is due for release in the first half of 2019.
